4.0 out of 5 stars help for moms, April 27, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Train Up a Mom: A Bible Study for Mothers (Paperback)

Our small Bible study group of moms just started using this book, but already it has taught us to listen for God's plan in raising our children. The study has also stimualted discussion about showing favoritism for a particular child in the family and praying for our children and their future. We are very excited about continuing this wonderful learning experience.

My boys are referred to as Night and Day-not sure which is which, but they are that opposite! This book helped locate the strengths of each child as well as define areas to pay more particular attention to in guidance and training. Illustrations of personalities are taken from Bible characters, and there is lots of room for personal analysis of your own children. Thank God for Vollie and her willingness to help train us Moms who are working on training our children to Serve the Lord!
